Conditions

Frontotemporal Dementia, Healthy

Brief summary

A first in human phase 1 study in healthy volunteers and participants with Granulin (GRN) mutation causative of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) to assess AL001 safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics

Detailed description

Inclusion criteria

* BMI 18.0-35.0 kg/m2 * 45-120 kg, inclusive * At screening, females must be non-pregnant and non-lactating, or of nonchildbearing potential (either surgically sterilized or physiologically incapable of becoming pregnant, or at least 1-year postmenopausal (amenorrhoea duration of 12 consecutive months); nonpregnancy will be confirmed for all females by a pregnancy test conducted at screening, (each) admission, and at follow-up. * Female participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception from screening until 90 days after the follow-up visit. * In good physical health on the basis of no clinically significant findings from medical history, physical examination (PE), laboratory tests, 12 lead ECG, and vital signs, as judged by the Investigator. * Willingness and able to comply with the study protocol, in the investigator's judgement.

Exclusion criteria

* Known history of severe allergic, anaphylactic, or other hypersensitivity reactions to chimeric, human, or humanized antibodies or fusion proteins. * Positive drug or alcohol at screening and prior to first dose * History of alcohol abuse or substance abuse
